I agree with lilo about Carol Ann Duffy , you can find poetry anywhere.(Paraphrasing here) I have also had my share of bus rides and all bus rides are not the same. I've ridden commuter , party, local, transit hub, National Bus lines and a wonderful bus service in Hawaii, called "The Bus", and in Hon Kong where you hang on for dear life. If someone is so inclined to write poetry about bus rides, IMO, there is a wealth of material on a bus ride.

I had a nice double (supposed to be cherry brandy) but more dark orange but it didn't come back. Maybe something will show up from it next year; I know to look for the soft, velvety leaves. I might have saved some seeds somewhere for that one, too. They're not my favorite but they're practical as they keep down weeds. Mine have crossed and grown thick. So they can just take over for all I care. I got quite different color combos I wouldn't pick from a catalog but work in well, and the clumps are uniform then change to a different clump nearby. Some are more tolerant to drought than others, lost one clump. I should have taken more photos of those when they were nicer. Prairie sun came back true in two places. I just let them self seed, take what I get (can always yank ones I intensely dislike) and will make them the mainstay of my garden along with phlox and iris and a few others. This is strange. Got a prairie sun volunteer on the extreme north side of the house, and it's blooming prettily (but went into bloom later). Nice to know they are shade tolerant like that, just gets a little morning sun, that's it.

Hornbaker sells their hosta online. The victory I got on their opening day was $18.00. If I recall correctly, all of their Victory in pots were each two eyes like mine. Mine a few days ago. Hornbaker Gardens does sell clumps online that go up to $60.00 plus $12.00 shipping per clump. Victory isn't one of them though. I looked at them while I was up there. They grow them in 5 to 10 gallon pots and are 3 to 5 years old. The majority of their hosta in pots that they sell are multi eyed except for some of the newest ones. I don't think they divide them when they sell them online from what I have read from others that have ordered from them online. I have bought about 40 varieties from them in the past two years. On their main hosta webpage there are links at the bottom right for the hosta price list and clump price list. Here is a link that might be useful: Hornbaker Gardens

OK, the plantain lilies in my possession that are genetically predisposed to greater sensitivity to cooler than average temperatures (aka, smart ones) have shown a distinct and verifiable tendency to not prematurely emerge from dormancy.
